Doctorate in Athletic Training

Indiana State University provides the first and only CAATE accredited Doctorate in Athletic Training (DAT) Program in the nation.

• This 57-credit program is delivered using a combination of online learning and intensive hands-on learning. Cohorts of up to 25 students engage in periods of both online and face-to-face faculty-student interactions to enhance knowledge, skills, and abilities. Campus requirements total approximately 12-15 days annually (4-5 days per semester).
• The program must be completed in 6 semesters (24 months) of continuous, full-time enrollment.
• This program is open to eligible students in the U.S. (including the District of Columbia and all U.S. territories). The program also is open to students in Canada (all provinces). If out-of-state students are applying to become residential graduate assistants they must relocate to Indiana. The program is closed to students residing in countries other than the U.S. and Canada except for U.S. military and State Department personnel and their family members with APO/FPO addresses.
• A limited number of residential and nonresidential assistantships are available. For details, visit the Department of Applied Medicine and Rehabilitation.
